The West Va. Legislature met in
entra session Wednesday. The peo
pie generally agree to these facts:
/. The expense of an extra SEES
sion is an outrage, in the condition
the State is in, and could easily have
been avoided by less factional fight
ing and more legislative work.
9. The quicker the Legislature
transacts what is before 1t and ad.
journs the better.
3. 1t is safe to say that the influ.
ence of political compromise will
give the people senator who could
not be elected by their votes, and
the U. S. Senate will do right in
not recognizing either contestant,
but revert the whole matter back
to the party and people for the
settlement of all differences. If the
election of q. S. Senators would be
left to the voters of the country, our
American House of Lords would
soon be abolished.

Every new and startling device Of
self-destruction finds ready imita-
tors in far-off parts of the country,
and there is a reasonable SUPPOSE
ton that the sensational notoriety
given by the newspapers to these
occurrences is the leading cause of
their repetition. Rough ON Rats "
